That ... actually sounds like it had the result of making you not want to do it again in the future, and if that's the case, one could say it was productive. And if lashing out online has less of a bad impact on the person on the other end than lashing out in person, then that seems like an improvement to me.
Matt Levine is speculating that they're doing exactly that.

Bloomberg seems determined to make people feel bad for the short sellers. No. I will not. They made a gamble and it costs them billions. Good. No one should be gambling with billions on the line, for any reason.
I'm kind of confused here. Websites have to do everything you're saying today already. There are already different rules regarding data privacy, protected speech, etc. in different countries. How you choose to fulfill those obligations is up to you. But yes if your point is that it requires work to follow various different regulations, then of course you're correct. In fact, that's the whole point. The regulations are there to change your behavior in the market in question. We've had regulations across varying markets since pretty much time immemorial.

They should be sent to pasture at month seven, destined to live out the natural lifespan of a cow and die a rather unremarkable and dignified death of old age, having grazed upon the fields and enriched its soil with their manure. They can also be used for humane harvesting of methane. They should, of course, be spayed and neutered as well, and children can pay to pet their cute noses and dress them up in funny costumes during holiday season. This suggestion is not the advice of some militant vegan (on the contrary, I am but a lowly flexitarian, who believes that most animal products are destined for the wastebin of history), nay I am but a hopeful wandering utilitarian, who happened to alight upon this most recurrent and delectable of controversies.
Disgusting piece of shit. You deserve to die.
I think using the word regress seems to imply that it was improving. Wealth inequality in the U.S. has been getting worse at faster rates, even before 2020.
Great explanation. IMO the GameStop phenomenon is the result of the combination of democratization of trading through software (Robinhood no fee trading, doing it on your cellphone) + social media enabled mass scale online community building (around some previously fringe niche). Any area that is subject to this kind of combination of change could face similar situation where the old institutions guarding the area would face increasing challenge from grass root efforts ("retards/autistics" as in wsb's lingo).
I have a theory that older generations are much worse at identifying fake information on the internet. I clicked a few bogus banner ads (punch the monkey and win 100$) and got my fair share of malware from limewire, so I learned that you should treat everything on the internet with skepticism. Older people grew up with media that wasn't always accurate, but at least wasn't directly lying or trolling you.

Now the internet has been delivered right into their pockets and they aren't prepared for it. They see a video about ballet boxes being stuffed, and of course they believe it. Their friend Gladys shared it on facebook, of course it's real!

> and there are already better, cheaper and more secure ways to transfer currency between two parties.

Like for example...?

BTC is hardly a currency (it was intended purpose but it not capable in its current form), its utility is ease of transfer over to anyone. Try to transfer money from US to EU or African country. Let's see how easy that is going to be.

You have to rely on third party actors and government to facilitate it (just reminding - we are not debating if that good or bad thing, just that btc is more than a worse implementation of a currency).

Assuming you have a larger record size than block size (with media files you probably want a 1M record size), and that you probably have ashift set to 12 (4k) or 13 (8k), then I believe you need to enable compression in order to prevent the final record from using the full record size. IOW, ZFS will pad out the final record with zeros to the full record size, then use compression on it (if enabled) so that the zeros don't need to be written to disk.

This article refers to the padding on the final record as "slack space" and states that you need to enable compression to eliminate the slack space.

You should maybe start off with his interview with Publisher’s Weekly. He said a couple of things about the YA genre that just aren’t true. The biggest one was that he seems to think it doesn’t take a lot of brains to write YA whereas his book is somehow special.

That interview was the first time that anyone had taken any notice of Bergstrom. So then, everyone read his excerpt.

(Incidentally, that’s a bad flow in writing. If your press insults an entire genre, your excerpt better be damned flawless. This goes 100x if you’re talking YA.)

The first paragraph delivers a really traditional out of touch old dude description of the Hunger Games. That’s treading on dangerous territory because you’re dealing with a universe that young people have become deeply invested in.

The second quote violates one of the genre’s rules about writing women.

So, you’ve got a writer who signed a big contract and a film deal. His introduction to his genre’s fans was an absolute disaster. So, the genre’s fans did what they always do and made a huge mess.

Some might call it disproportionate but then they don’t understand the genre either. YA is about disproportionate reactions. That’s essentially marketing.

All of that should make everyone seriously question whether this is a Paramount growth hack. Heaven knows Paramount wouldn’t be the first company to try to create controversy when they own rights to a book.
> Lisp has a percived [sic] lack of libraries

Lisp is also widely perceived as an interpreted language. Willful ignorance does not make reality even if it is widespread.
As I understand, that is to be expected because PCIe GPUs get 16 lanes, which is more than enough.

There's more to PCIe than just graphics cards. SSDs, Thunderbolt, 10G Ethernet, USB 3.1-2 are some bandwidth demanding applications that could benefit

PCIe NVME drives only get 4 lanes through the m.2 port, and drives run close to the bandwidth limits on 3.0, I think I've seen benchmarks showing 30% improvements on 4.0 compared to 3.0

I'd also be interested in what difference there is running a PCIe 4.0 graphics card with only 8 lanes on 4.0 vs 3.0
Not to toot our own horn, but while this mentions GraphQL with Relay / Apollo as fetching clients, with urql and its normalised cache Graphcache we started approaching more of these problems.

Solving the mentioned problems in the article for best practices around fragments is on our near future roadmap, but there are some other points here that we've worked on that especially Apollo did not (yet)

Request batching is in my humble opinion not quite needed with GraphQL and especially with HTTP/2 and edge caching via persisted queries, however we have stronger guarantees around commutative application of responses from the server.

We also have optimistic updates and a lot of intuitive safe guards around how these and other updates are applied to all normalised data. They're applied in a pre-determined order and optimistic updates are applied in such a way that the optimistic/temporary data can never be mixed with "permanent" data in the cache. It also prevents races by queueing up queries that would otherwise overwrite optimistic data accidentally and defers them up until all optimistic updates are completed, which will all settle in a single batch, rather than one by one.

I find this article really interesting since it seems to summarise a lot of the efforts that we've also identified as "weaknesses" in normalised caching and GraphQL data fetching, and common problems that come up during development with data fetching clients that aren't aware of these issues.

Together with React and their (still experimental / upcoming) Suspense API it's actually rather easy to build consistent loading experiences as well. The same goes for Vue 3's Suspense boundaries too.

Edit: Also this all being said, in most cases Relay actually also does a great job on most of the criticism that the author lays out here, so if the only complaint that a reader here picks up are the DX around fragments and nothing else applies this once again shows how solid Relay can be as well.
This kind of market folly also has an effect on long-term investments, e.g. retirement funds. What is there to love? I hate that unshowered basement-dwellers are coordinating to screw around with the market and potentially my retirement money. Get an honest job, guys.
My main problem with ZFS is the very limited number of ways you can change your setup. No removing drives, no shrinking, etc. Probably fine for (bare-metal) production systems, but not so friendly with desktops/laptops, where I would still love to have snapshots and send-recv support.
I found that technical blog posts and documentation have made me aware of brands I otherwise wouldn't of known existed.

Digital Ocean was great at this in the early days. I don't know if they haven't put as much effort into as of late or changes in SEO, but I don't seem to get funneled there by search engines as frequently.
A better way to think about this is for retail businesses the storefront landlord acts as a spring-loaded sink of money. The landlord will take all available money until the retailer has bare minimum margins, 2-5% typically. Retailers will trade away wages for rent because landlords are very powerful and retail labor is not at all powerful. Therefore the minimum wage is simply a way for the government to set a rule saying you can only trade down to this amount. To treat the staffing budget as a fixed thing isn't a proper model. You have to understand it as being in tension with other budgets.

Am I missing something in the Gamestop news that isn't "hedge fund gambles billions on naked shorts and loses"? That seems like a real blunder on their part. In other contexts we would just call this gambling, I think. Shorts have infinite liability, not hedging them is not something I can get behind.
Lots of things have been around for 1000's of years. Rape, murder, clothes, but that doesn't mean they are a good thing.
No, they are only the same price under very strict assumptions. The put-call parity says that buying a call and selling a put creates the same payoff structure as being long the stock itself. Depending on the strike, the put or the call could be ~100% of the value of the position. Only when you get near the price of the underlying do the put and call equal each other.
“should we conclude that, in fact, the findings were that the average person will revolt against an unjust authority,”

History has repeatedly shown that a significant number of people will actively play along and almost nobody will revolt. Otherwise the Nazi war crimes and Holocaust, My Lai, the purges and gulags under Stalin or the Khmer Rouge wouldn’t have happened. All these needed significant participation from a lot of average people. History also shows that no culture (as in religion or a certain part of the world) is immune from that.
I'm not even a driver so I am a bit clueless. Are EV stations seriously not standardised? i.e. Is it the conventional equivalent of going to any petrol station and having to find a fuel pump that isn't leaded/unleaded/diesel but is more like trying to find the one that matches to your brand of car? This seems absurd.

I'm also really loving that there are a whole bunch of Redditors donating part of their gains to charity, something that those hedge funds would never do.

In my eyes those hedge funds never did anything good for humanity, and I too am loving every minute of this and how some of the big money is being siphoned into the hands of people that actually need it more.
Reminds me of that Black Mirror episode
One of main points I've seen from people angry about a perceived deliberate manipulation to reduce Gamestop's stock price is that this will directly impact retail workers in the form of job loss.

Could anyone explain how this might happen? My naive assumption is that the relationship between a company and it's stock is (mostly) one-way. If a company cuts jobs, this along with all other signals from that company will be perceived by the market in some way and potentially impact the price of stock in that company. Would the opposite ("Our stock price is going down, lets fire people") be at all likely to happen?

Addressing Range Anxiety with Smart Electric Vehicle Routing
This is another reason why it's so unfortunate that wikis have died out. GitHub for its part helped kill them and then salted the earth, too—it's hardly possible to even talk about "wikis" anymore, because it's not clear whether a person is actually referring to a wiki wiki, or "some loose leaf Markdown that exists in a repo somewhere (but it's not necessarily clear where), and that's unlikely to allow direct editing without approval". The latter flies in the face of the very etymology of the word.

(To be fair, the same velocity-diminishing forces are at play in the typical practices for using GitHub to collaborate on code, too, but people are even less sensitive to that than they are about wikis.)
You're fair to argue that it's immoral; I'm agnostic on the idea. Though I'm not sure that Economics has much to say about it.

As for whether it's destructive, I used to strongly believe so.

Now I believe that, as long as there is unemployment in the system (and my understanding is economics tells us that there will ALWAYS be unemployment), the lack of an adequate wage floor will always result in a race to the bottom and a drag on wages.

In the minimum-wage-adjacent pay rates, you might have double the potential workers than the number of workers actually hired. There is therefore zero incentive to offer additional pay for additional productivity at that wage tier, because the employees can simply be replaced (yes, at some fixed cost).

I'm not sure there's much of an overlap. Incels are a rather small group, and I think most wallstreetbets users are surprisingly... normal. You can't bet on stocks if you're poor. So you'll have lots of mid/late 20s educated guys with decent incomes. This to me really feels like a classic "for the lulz" (and some personal profit), avalanche-style event.
I had certainly viewed my first dirty magazine long before the age of 17, as well as seen my share of violent movies and video games. When does this end? When cursing around anyone under the age of 18 becomes illegal?

The issue with the internet as is currently is more about societal pressure. Every device for the last umpteen years has come with parental controls that include filtering out NSFW-esque material. If your position is that platforms such as FB should also include these sorts of parental controls I agree, but if your position is that we should restrict kids access to the internet as a whole because they might see a boob, then I wholeheartedly disagree.
Possibly you missed then the hundreds (thousands?) of antifa/etc riots and violent attacks in the US this year alone?

Here's the tesla experience.

Pull into charge, plug in the car, start charging.

Here's the competition.

Pull into charge, plug in the car, Maybe swipe a credit if you are lucky and start charging. Likely, you need to install a 3rd party app first then you need to feed that app your CC information and then you need to tell that app a station number to activate. You better hope there's good internet because if there's not you might not be able to charge.

Further, for stations that do take a credit card or tap and pay. It's like 50/50 on whether or not it will actually go through. Usually it takes a crazy long time to actually validate the card number before charging (Like, I've waited 10 minutes before for a charge to start!).
How to resize an UIImageView to fit a container view using auto layout
While a minor thing, I wanted to add to this, even when everything works properly and on the first try with third party chargers, you gotta pull out your phone and open the app (or use it as an Apple Wallet card, if the charging station supports it) to activate the charger and start the whole charging process.

As opposed to superchargers, where you literally just plug the charger in and that's it, everything is handled for you.

Meanwhile a handful of families still own and control 70% of all stocks which aren't traded, that is they aren't buying or selling and will likely transfer the ownership to family in decades time. The only way that will change is by changes in taxation. What we are looking at with WSB and GME is a very, very tiny perspective of the entire machine. It is interesting but a very small influence on the entirety. Nonetheless, all these instruments, such as short selling and options, are designed to create liquidity and stability. It's working by design. This isn't a bug, it is a feature.

“Women inquiring about planned home birth should be informed of its risks and benefits based on recent evidence. Specifically, they should be informed that although planned home birth is associated with fewer maternal interventions than planned hospital birth, it also is associated with a more than twofold increased risk of perinatal death (1–2 in 1,000) and a threefold increased risk of neonatal seizures or serious neurologic dysfunction (0.4–0.6 in 1,000).”
Baseball Hall of Fame rejects politically outspoken star Curt Schilling
I have an acquaintance that had just bought his 4th Leaf (2019) and decided to drive it on a 400ish mile road trip to a conference. It took him over 10 hours. When he got to the next charger they

1) Often only had 1 high output charger.
2) The one they had was often either in use, or broken leading to very long charge times.

This combined with the less than stellar driver assist the would never get any better for the life of car made him almost instantly regret sticking with the leaf.

He owned it for about 2 months before trading it in on new Model 3.

Many times the third party chargers are broken, or vandalized. Some have screens which are completely unreadable after a few years in the sun. They’re sited in inconvenient spots, such as mall parking lots, which have nothing open after 9pm.

That being said, the Tesla charging network is far from perfect. Check to see how many US National Parks you can practically visit with a Tesla. Carlsbad Caverns? Nope. North Rim of the Grand Canyon? Barely.

It cuts both ways.

One child (reserved/shy) - has had probably more negative impact than anything else in her life. From the very first access to tech has continually found opportunity to find toxic, negative communities (hentai, r/teenagers, edtwt, sh, bdsm). Any attempt to reduce results in hiding and lying. The speed that a kid can change window or swipe away is ridiculous. Literally can't find a way that tech has benefitted her.

Another child (shy too), enamored with anything that teaches her more (tik tok, youtube, etc).

The big difference is that the second child isn't looking for community. The first child is looking for community but can only find community in echo chambers that reflect back teenage angst, and those echo chambers run deep.

I can only hope that the first child grows into an well adjusted adult, and while not social media, toxic and negative online communities are just simply too easier to slide into.
There's a pretty simple defense here. "I saw the posts on reddit and wanted to get in on the upward swing". Efficient markets at work. Unless you can tie real identities to the reddit posts there's not much to be done.

I'm sure these companies do. When I'm interviewing, potential is what I weight most in a candidate.
